P is for...Pursuing the Possible by Ey Wade

Wow, this week must be inspiration week! Here's another great post in our A-Z challenge that will make you think twice about giving up on your dreams. Read on!!

P is for...Pursuing the Possible

Perhaps the chase begins at the moment of the first
perfect poom poom of our newly developed heartbeat. From that first blood
rushing introduction into life we have kicked, punched, and struggled against
the bounds to reach our goals. Pulled from the warmth of our mother's body we
began our quest for pure happiness. Stand tall, believe in what you want and go
for it, which brings us to the letter ‘P’, one of my favorite letters of the
alphabet. It stands between the two fattest letters O and Q, Opportunity and
Quitter and yet it always looks forward.

What other letter is so powerful in its form and
design? Back straight and face determinedly looking ahead. Following the 15th
of his eldest sibling, 'O' (opportunity) with the knowledge and undeterred
faith that wherever there is opportunity anything is possible.

If you want to be an author and it doesn’t seem as
if the traditional form of publication stands behind you, pull out your pen and
paper, write your prose and become your own publishing company.

If you want to home school your children, just do
it. Who better than you to know what your child needs? From experience I know
people will be against you. Pounding you with old tired clichés of what the
children will miss when it comes to socialization and the quality of education.
Just show them the stats for the Public school system and laugh.

If you want to be a parent and the partner of your
choice just hasn’t shown up….ahhh, the realms of possibility pursue you. Adopt
or use Invetro Fertilization. Anything is possible in this day and age. I am
determined to follow opportunity and refuse to look back and into the
snickering face of a big fat Q.

Ey considers herself to be a caged in frustrated author of thought provoking, mind bending e-books, an occasional step-in parent, a besotted 'Lovey"' (grandparent) a fountain of knowledge, and ready to share.

Thanks Raven. That was kind of neat the way it all fell together. My computer broke, internet went wonkers and I was left to write this on my phone. I almost backed out, but my word is my honor. Thank God for the possible.I appreciate your comment.

Anything is possible - even doing your post by phone, apparently! You are not a Quitter and see the Opportunity that getting or choosing this letter means to you -- and I, too, feel inspired. I see O as being both Obstacles and Opportunities BUT each continues to be followed by Possibility -- you've said it well -- and I enjoyed my brief visit to your website.
